SAF (Structural Analysis Format)

Direct Import for BIMPLUS and Tracking of SAF Files in Excel

The Structural Analysis Format (SAF) is transforming the handling of structural analysis data, enabling seamless OPEN BIM integration. Designed specifically for structural analysis, SAF provides all relevant information in an easily readable format that can be viewed in Excel, for example, significantly simplifying integration into your BIM projects.

In addition to multiple other file formats, model data in SAF can now be imported directly into BIMPLUS, further enhancing the digital model representation. BIMPLUS is incredibly flexible. In order to make it easier to understand model information, enable effective change management and visualization, we have embedded the BIM-Explorer in Excel – enabling the user to clearly track the components contained in Excel at model level. This new functionality improves traceability, provides more clarity and transparency, and makes it easier to process information.

Technical Preview Integration of structural analysis/design

Improved collaboration between structural engineers and detailers

To save time, optimize designs and reduce costs, structural engineers and reinforcement detailers need to work closely together. The merger of ALLPLAN, FRILO and SCIA opens up new possibilities for this. In the first step, reinforcement parameters such as the number and diameter of the longitudinal reinforcement and the diameter and spacing of the stirrup reinforcement can now be transferred from the FRILO B5+ column program to the automatic column reinforcement in ALLPLAN. A parametric reinforcement model is generated from this in ALLPLAN. These capabilities are to be transferred in further steps to other component types such as beams and foundations, but also to SCIA Engineer and other structural analysis products.
